Sexual Harassment

Los Angeles Sexual Harassment Attorneys

Both California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and Title VII of the federal Civil Rights Act prohibit discrimination based on gender, and that includes sexual harassment.

If you have experienced sexual harassment on the job, whether in the form of pressure to date, undressing with eyes every time you enter a room, sexual innuendo, or inappropriate "jokes," contact the Los Angeles sexual harassment attorneys at the Law Offices of Rheuban & Gresen.

Sexual Harassment Attorneys in Los Angeles

Our sexual harassment lawyers  in Los Angeles have extensive experience dealing with Southern California employers who have little regard for modern day sensibilities. Our sexual harassment attorneys can provide crucial advice to those suffering under a sexually hostile work environment. We also represent individuals who have been pressured to provide sexual favors, or those who have been forced to tolerate unwanted fondling or groping as a condition of keeping their job or rising in their career.

Quid Pro Quo

Known as "quid pro quo" sexual harassment, from the Latin meaning "this for that," the expectation that you will provide a colleague or manager with sexual gratification in exchange for job security is an especially serious situation that can expose both individual and corporate defendants to very heavy liability.

At Rheuban & Gresen, our Los Angeles sexual harassment attorneys can advise you as to the full scope of your legal rights in the workplace including:

  • Whether the conditions present in your workplace might support a claim of constructive discharge — that is, where working conditions are so intolerable that a reasonable person in the injured employee's position would have little choice but to resign
  • How to document and/or report any unlawful conduct, and thereafter follow any internal investigation of sexual harassment claims
  • Problems relating to retaliation in the workplace for reporting, complaining about, or resisting sexual harassment
  • The potential damages of each individual claim including, without limitation, damages for physical and mental pain and suffering, and loss of earnings — past, present and future
